The Game Theorists revisit the ties between Five Nights at Freddy’s and the real-life pizza franchise Chuck E. Cheese in their new FNAF origin theory.
Players of Five Nights at Freddy’s have been picking apart minor details within each game installment for years, but The Game Theorists speculate that creator Scott Cawthorn drew more inspiration from the creation of the real-life Chuck E. Cheese franchise than some may have initially thought. MatPat’s show Game Theory is notorious for its extensive coverage of FNAF lore since the first game’s release, and his latest theory video takes viewers back to his first-ever FNAF theory, reconsidering how closely the development of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria Co. mirrors actual events in Chuck E. Cheese’s history by focusing on the original rivalry and merger between two competing animatronic pizza chains.

[Warning: The following article contains spoilers for the Five Nights at Freddy’s series.]It can be challenging to keep track of all the FNAF lore – for a refresher, here’s all FNAF: Security Breach’s endings explained. At the end of Pizzeria Simulator, Afton had rounded up every existing Fazbear animatronic, trapped himself and William Afton inside the original FNAF pizzeria, and burnt everything down to release the murdered children’s spirits and end the cycle of suffering. FNAF: Help Wanted VR introduced GlitchTrap and Vanny, paving the way for the subsequent resurgence of FazBear Entertainment. This led to the construction of a new PizzaPlex and new GlamRock animatronics over the remains of the old one, where William Afton and the Afton Amalgamation still lived on.
